Are you or someone you know a caregiver who must face the often overwhelming demands of caring for a loved-one with long-term medical problems that require your assistance. Spouses and partners are invited to join Donna Atherton a Caregiver Coach/Life Coach and caregiver in a Talking Circle. We provide an supportive and safe place to share your commonalities like: frustration, anger, losing interest in activities, feeling resentful, short tempered, increase use of alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, withdrawn from social contacts, decrease productivity at work, exhaustion, feeling helpless, and guilt. Talking circles are not limited to a certain topic content; it is not a support group. Instead its purpose is to connect with other caregivers with similarities that concern caregivers. It is a place to meet and talk about ?"whatever you desire?" while others listens without invasive interruption. If someone wishes to make a comment or express their thoughts it is limited to a faint grunt or noise through the nose. Negative comments are not allowed, especially when someone is speaking. The circle can go around several times so that everyone gets a chance to talk. Each person must wait their turn. Talking circles are safe environments and you should feel comfortable knowing that no one will interrupt or criticize you.

Now is the time to bring those lessons together and look forward to 2010. There are countless opportunities to create change in the coming year and we have an important role to play in making that happen.
